Behold My Power

Sophia Martin

Blank verse
I'm a writer.

The written language is transparent.
A reflection of the soul.
A voice for the senses.

A communion of personality and moments lost.

Veiling truth, unveiling untruths.
Defining religions and translating cultures.
Creating and comforting misery.

An art form of human fallacy and empirical forces.

The written language is sensual, a deceptive art.
Quiet in introduction.
Loud in execution.

I'm a writer. Behold my power.
